F2 PARAMETER
From the Edit Pattern menu you can select this page where some overall parame-
ters for the whole Pattern can be modified. It is preferable to set these parameters
before recording a track or a
PPaarrtt
. Some of these parameters can only be modified
with a newly created Pattern (no recording has occurred).
F1 Tempo: Its default setting is 120 bpm. This value can be modified
using the
TTEEMMPPOO --
e
TTEEMMPPOO ++

DDAATTAA CCUURRSSOORR
push buttons.

fied using the

pressing the
FF88 BBaassss OOccttaavvee
function push button to toggle within various values.

by choosing a 4-string bass the bass note will not go below E0 and if you change to a 5-string bass the lowest note will
be C0. Pay attention also to the
FF88 BBaassss OOccttaavvee
value, which could cancel the choice of the
